Mateusz, I agree. MD is what I always use. Once you figure out the manifest stuff things become easier. On another note, I was checking out the GD lib homepage a few weeks ago and ended up looking at your home page. Those cliffs near the water where you rock climb look awesome! I live in Colorado and use to climb a lot when I was younger. Really cool pics!

In the world of Windows OS, DLL is the preferred option. Static linking to C/C++ run-time can cause more problems than it helps.

That's exactly the evil of static linking. Users would need to recompile all components of their software.
